Ready for a little story
A tad bit gory
Along came the man with his fitful brow
Took from his pocket a scarlet scroll
Took a step a forward and asked to see
Places his hand over my eyes and asked me to breath
So I breathed
So I breathed
And what I see is duty free
What I see is part of me
And under his breath
He summons the rest
In the darkness
I watch the snakes caress
The sound and mask of a mind
He got to present, It's a gift
But where can I go to flee
In the dream that's mistaken for reality
It's a story a we all share and breath
Are you the man or me or something in between
As the snakes ride
Poison fills my mind
Darkened by the shadows
Left upon the hallow long gone desert
And he's gone and I'm strong
Blinded by wrong doin' what I can't do no more
In an endless dream
And now I, I count to three
And promise you'll still be asleep
One
Two
And three
And three
And three
